Reliable long-range thermal detection
Flexible mounting options
Support for powerful analytics
Four I/O ports and edge-to-edge
Built-in cybersecurity with Axis Edge Vault
Ideal for perimeter security and long-range detection, this robust camera offers reliable detection and verification 24/7, while protecting privacy. With flexible mounting options, it can be mounted on a positioning unit for better scene understanding.
Reliable detection and verification—always
Using thermal technology, AXIS Q2111-E offers reliable detection and verification 24/7 in all light conditions and even in smoke and light fog—all while protecting privacy. A powerful sensor with extremely high thermal sensitivity and a 60 mm lens make it ideal for perimeter security to capture events taking place at great distances. When mounted on a positioning unit (sold separately), this robust camera provides a 360° unobstructed field of view allowing operators to pinpoint any spot in an instant or run guard tour with smooth panoramic viewing. What’s more, electronic image stabilization (EIS) ensures stable, reliable video in all environments.

Powerful analytics platform
This powerful thermal camera delivers actionable insights helping you make informed decisions about your operations. It comes with AXIS Motion Guard, AXIS Fence Guard, and AXIS Loitering Guard preinstalled for proactive surveillance. Plus, you can buy AXIS Perimeter Defender with AI-based functionality for enhanced protection. Built on a powerful analytics platform, it’s possible to add custom-made third-party analytics. And, with four I/O ports, one RS485 serial port, and edge-to-edge technology, you can easily integrate and trigger other devices such as a network speaker or strobe siren.

Robust and secure
With IK10-, IP66/67-, NEMA 4X, and NEMA TS2 ratings, this robust thermal camera is impact- and weather-resistant. It includes Axis Edge Vault, a hardware-based cybersecurity platform that safeguards the device and protects sensitive information from unauthorized access. Plus, it offers secure key storage with FIPS 140-2 Level 2 certified secure cryptographic key storage and operations. Furthermore, this sustainable camera is made from halogen-free materials and offers a low carbon footprint.
